asilentone---- I remember reading in a Watchtower, or some other WBTS publication that reading romance novels would give a christian woman "unrealistic expectations" towards her husband, so we were definitely discouraged from it. I read them all the time now! tee hee hee....

Beware of the Strawman argument!
by Farkel inyears ago before i took the time and effort to study logic and argumentation, i went to a market and bought some toothpaste.
it was a little-known brand and it touted "baking soda" as its magic ingredient.
it was also cheaper than the name-brand toothpastes and that helped me in my decision.

I consider this site my haven. Which is how many people view their religion, so in a way, yes, I guess it is. I come here to be enlightened. And I have found much enlightenment here. It is not always what I want to hear. I do not come here to get my ears tickled, the truth is not always pretty, and sometimes it hurts, but it is always better than lies. If you want to hold fast to your beliefs and the teachings of WBTS, you are in a very dangerous place.

BIG talk with teenage son today
by Aussie Oz inyesterday i got to ask my kids what they thought of the convention they just had.
response was 'really good'.
daughter liked the drama but could not say why or what the lesson was... so i figure she liked it because it was more interesting than the regular talks.

I don't really think I need to say anymore..... Well, except for this,... The word "apostate" only means that some of the things that I once believed have changed, such as the idea that some organization should control every living thought or action that I ever have or do. So, no it does not scare me to be on this site, and take this stand. I trust God to judge me accordingly. He knows my heart, not you, or me, or any other human on the face of the earth.
Consider this Debator,--- If an apostate came into the kingdom hall during a meeting and started to disrupt, would the "brothers" not kindly show them to the door? You are doing the same thing that a so called apostate would do at a meeting, you are trying to disrupt this forum. You continue to trample and berate the people on here, while at the same time being disloyal to the doctrine of your own religion. I think that makes you a DOUBLE apostate!

I agree. They say that he will read hearts, but that applies to all of us. I don't think that just because I am no longer considering myself as one of Jehovah's witnesses, that that automatically means that I am evil. But according to the doctrine, that does make me evil.

A question for "loyal servants of Jehovah"
by peacedog in"as loyal servants of jehovah, why would we even want to peek at the propaganda put out by these rejecters of jehovah's table who now verbally beat those who are helping us take in 'healthful words'?
" (wt 7/1/1994, p.12).
i really couldn't have asked the question any better myself... c'mon you self-proclaimed loyal servants of jehovah!

Peacedog---- I'm getting quite the kick out of it! Nothing like a current JW to argue like a politician! Let the mud slinging begin!

And what do funerals and weddings have to do with being on an apostate website? Funerals and weddings= conscience matter, apostate websites= NOT A CONSCIENCE MATTER.

Yes. I am an apostate on an apostate site. I was raised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I have heard this site mentioned specifically from the platform. And the words that were used were as follows... " Visiting these sites where opposers of Jehovah congregate can leave your mind open for Satan to take hold." Sounds like possession to me.
How can you not think that this is an apostate site? It obviously is, as others have told you. Your conscience is the one that needs some tweaking, I sleep just fine at night. And by the way, NONE in the world we live in can keep to Jehovah's standards perfectly. All one can do is try. You are the one who comes off as only being familiar with the witnesses rather than being one, if you were, you would know that being on this site marks you yourself as an apostate, and if found out, you yourself would be disfellowshipped.
